Role of swimming pool chemicals in pool water maintenance


Commonly used for exercise, recreation, hydrotherapy, and leisure, swimming pool like any other natural water body is vital and needs regular maintenance for its longer operational ability. This swimming pool maintenance requires various physical, chemical and technological aspects to keep it free of safe, germs free and sparkling at all times and it’s not an easy task.

“Nobody likes jumping into a dirty pool”

Swimming pool is continuously filled with visibly clean but untreated water, oxidizing minerals, and other materials that might not be good for swimmer’s skin. The conditions around any pool are ideal for microbial growth, which calls for continuous monitoring. Pool water, interior and filter are three major components that need to be taken care of to keep any pool in good and swimmable condition. Now, let us understand some common issues faced by pools.

·         Pool water often gets dirty with leaves, twigs, animal droppings, insects, bugs, etc since it is mostly in open surroundings. Not only limited to it, swimmers may leave behind saliva, mucous, dead skins, etc.

·         Pool water may undergo algal bloom if not used for a long period of time. Since the water is stagnant, it may act as a breeding space for mosquitoes, insects, etc.

·         The water turns acidic, after a point of time, causing irritation to eyes, nose, and throat of swimmers, and corroding metallic components in the pool.

·         Alkalinity of pool water rises when the pH level of water rises causing skin irritation and corrosion in tiles, floors, and other pool components

Chemtex Speciality Limited, a speciality chemical manufacturer and solution provider, has an entire pool care range that has water disinfectants, algaecide, cleaners and pool maintenance chemicals.

·         Pool Chlor, TCCA 90 granules is a stable source of chlorine, is for removal of infection causing germs and bacteria that may survive in water, source being infected bathers. It is a good alternative option to oxidizing and unstable bleaching powder.

·         Pool Cide, is an organic, chlorine-free algaecide, used against green, black and mustard algal bloom.  It is rapid, and is effective even against slime formers, bacteria and other harmful germs.

·         Pool Clean, for removal of stubborn pool deposits, and calcium scaling from equipment and pool filters.

·         Pool Clear, polymer based pool clarifier, that traps suspended solids, debris, scum, and oil, leaving clean, bright, and sparkling pools.

·         Pool pH balancing chemicals, to keep the pH of pool water between 7.2 – 7.6, in a way, offsetting the adversities of low and high pH water.

RO Antiscalant

Reverse Osmosis serves as one of the most critical processes that are involved in the process water treatment to clean water, utilized in various industrial process applications. Reverse Osmosis can be regarded as the process wherein semi-permeable membranes help in separating purified water from contaminated water. It occurs when a pressure is applied to the concentrated side of the membrane resulting in forcing purified water to the dilute side. Reverse Osmosis is very efficient for the treatment of brackish, surface and ground water for both large and small flow applications. Some examples of industries that use RO water include boiler feed water, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, metal finishing and semiconductor manufacturing to mention a few. The overall performance of a reverse osmosis system relies on various factors like feed water quality, membrane type, flow control, temperature and pressure. Systems must be well maintained for ensuring effective performance with any

Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (HOAT) Coolant

Optimal use of machines is directly proportional to its engine performance. What an engine does is it converts the supplied energy into its mechanical form, driving the machine to work. Engines require one-third of total heat that is generated during conversion and the rest of the heat is needed to be evacuated from the combustion chamber which would otherwise lead to engine failure. Earlier, water was preferred as an ideal coolant for quite a period of time but the problem started to arise when the temperature would become extremely high or low, to be precise temperature more than 100 ° C and below 0°C. To get rid of this problem, coolants were formulated. Coolants are categorized chemicals that increases the boiling point of the fluid and decreases the freezing point of the fluid to make it suitable for use in extreme heat and freezing conditions. Coolants are a proportionate mixture of antifreeze and solvent, mainly glycol and water. Ideally utilized as a preventive in

Antiscalant Chemical for RO Plant

  Reverse Osmosis System is a revolutionary invention to treat water and provide an effective solution for purifying water in various applications. The performance of RO can be ensured by the formation of scale and deposits on the membranes, leading to reduced efficiency and increased operational costs.   To prevent this issue, antiscalant chemicals play an important role in reducing the formation of scale and maintaining optimal RO Plant performance. Reverse Osmosis is widely used in various industries to treat water and to remove impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. The dense, thin, and semi-permeable layer allows water molecules to pass through while rejecting dissolved solids, and other impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. But the major issue that surfaces in such systems is the formation of scales due to the build-up of dissolved minerals and salts on the surface of the RO Membrane.
